Ok, for times when I am really really lazy I like to lean back and get the hands off the keyboard. The problem with this is, it is hard to get anything done because a mouse on your pants/crotch is very hard to move. So i remebered about the gravis gamepad. I would very much like to bind the buttons on the gamepad to mouse buttons, I know it is possible to bind them to scripts and so on. The buttons arent really the issue. What I really want to know is, is it possible to move the pointer via the analog pad?
This would make computing so so incredibly great I be all crazy go nuts with delight.
Any thoughts?

you never got a response, and you've probably lost interest, and I don't have an answer for you anyway... but I can tell you I did something like this in windows, and hated it.
